What is Yelp?
Yelp is a website where over 71 million people (monthly) read and write reliable and trustworthy reviews of local businesses (restaurants, bars, shopping, just to name a few) from across communities in the US, the UK, Canada, France, Germany, Austria, Spain, Italy and so forth.

Community Managers in over 100 Yelp communities are responsible for marketing, PR, other social media outlets, event planning, e-newsletter campaigns, and various odds and ends on the local level --but they can't do it alone! Yelp Interns play an integral part in supporting activities designed to rally the Yelp community both online and off.

* Practical experience with new media marketing techniques
